9. Joe Newell - 7
The pick of the central midfielders on show. Neat and tidy and came close to scoring in second half. Photo: Craig Foy - SNS Group

10. Stevie Mallan - 6
Touch deserted him at times, although the conditions can't have helped, but feels like he might be too similar to Newell. Photo: Craig Foy - SNS Group

11. Jamie Murphy - 7
Hibs' most potent threat apart from McGinn. Surging runs and cutting in from the left nearly brought him joy and came close with couple of half-chances Photo: Ross Parker - SNS Group

12. Kevin Nisbet - 7
Good assist for McGinn's first and had a clutch of half-chances, but didn't get much change from St Johnstone's centre-halves Photo: Craig Foy - SNS Group
